Look Back

CriticsCritics: 95
AudienceAudience: 8.0

A popular student known for her comics is challenged when a reclusive classmate’s remarkable artwork appears in the school newspaper. Their rivalry gradually becomes a friendship built around drawing, ambition, and a shared desire to create, while each girl encourages the other to grow beyond isolation and self-doubt.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you appreciate heartfelt anime about creativity, friendship, and growing up, especially A Silent Voice: The Movie; Not for you if you need a longer, more detailed character journey.
